________________________________

The IEEE International Conference on Mobile Ad-Hoc and Smart Systems (MASS) is a premier annual forum for sharing original novel ideas in mobile ad-hoc networks and smart systems, defined broadly. As wireless ad-hoc networks continue to evolve and specialize into a number of application scenarios and environments, and sensor-based systems and technologies increasingly permeate our everyday life and become the inner fabric of the Internet of Things and cyber-physical systems, the unfolding of smart environments such as smart cities, smart farming, smart healthcare, and smart manufacturing, to name a few, demand integrated solutions that can make intelligent use of both cloud and edge system, while applying machine learning and artificial intelligence tools to handle their growing complexity and to leverage the vast amount of available data created.

We are pleased to invite you to submit original contributions to IEEE MASS 2024. This includes technical, experimental, theoretical, conceptual, or survey. All Original, unpublished contributions are solicited in all aspects of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) and smart systems, from mobile networking/computing to cyber-physical systems to the Internet of Things, from theory to systems and applications. All submissions will be peer-reviewed based on relevance, originality, importance, and clarity.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

5G networks and technologies
AI/ML for smart wireless networks
AI and machine learning aided protocol design and resource allocation
AI and machine learning-based applications for ad hoc networks
Algorithms for MANETs and WSNs
Application Layer Protocols
Clustering, topology control, coverage, and connectivity
